Recently I decided to start writing a science fiction novel. I reserved a desk in my room for this purpose, I also picked up an old Thinkpad X200 on which I installed Lubuntu 24.04 and plugged in a gaming keyboard for night writing. I chose to install a minimum of applications in order to stay focused.

My main writing App for the moment is Joplin

And you?

Are you writing a book or have you already written one?

What type of tool do you use to write?

Do you have some advice to share?

It sounds like the half-dead creature is older than mine :D

Thank you for this valuable advice, the idea of writing came to me when an old aunt told me that she had started writing after the death of her mother. It had helped her overcome depression. And I must admit that I feel surprisingly good since I started writing !
